this morning #2072.

this morning, she opened her front door & took a real good look around. breathed in the air. took a second deep breath. definitely didn’t smell like love out there. not today. it did smell like barbecue though. her stomach took note. kind of early in the day for firing up the grill but to each his own she supposed. she shut the door with a sigh. slumped shoulders. thought about why she let being single on valentine’s day affect her. these days, there’s sufficient anti-valentine’s day sentiment out there in the world for her to relate to. on the other hand, she’s always been a dreamer. enjoys roses. boxes of chocolate. candlelight dinners. general wooing. if millions of couples get to enjoy all that romantic stuff today, why can’t she?
